"fmpeg" has no attribute "input"

I had previously built this youtube downloader but when I tested it recently; it stopped working.

from pytube import YouTube
import ffmpeg
import os

raw = 'C:\ProgramData\ytChache'

path1 = 'C:\ProgramData\ytChache\Video\\'
path2 = 'C:\ProgramData\ytChache\Audio\\'

file_type = "mp4"

if os.path.exists(path1 and path2):
    boo = True
else:
    boo = False

while boo:

    url = str(input("Link : "))
    choice = int(input('Enter 1 for Only Audio and Enter 2 For Both Audio and Video \n: '))

    video = YouTube(url)
    Streams = video.streams

    if choice == 1:
        aud = Streams.filter(only_audio=True).first().download(path2)

    elif choice == 2:
        resol = str(input("Resolution : "))
        vid = Streams.filter(res=resol, file_extension=file_type).first().download(path1)
        aud = Streams.filter(only_audio=True).first().download(path2)

        file = video.title + '.mp4'
        # location = path1
        # location2 = path2
        rem = os.path.join(path1, file)
        rm = os.path.join(path2, file)

        video_stream = ffmpeg.input(path1, video.title + '.mp4')
        audio_stream = ffmpeg.input(path2, video.title + '.mp4')
        ffmpeg.output(audio_stream, video_stream, video.title + '.mp4').run()
        os.remove(rem)
        os.remove(rm)

    else:
        print('Invalid Selection')

if not boo:
    os.mkdir(raw)
    os.mkdir(path1)
    os.mkdir(path2)

so it gives an error saying:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "E:\dev files\YouTube Video Downloader\Video Downloader.py", line 39, in <module>
    video_stream = ffmpeg.input(path1 + video.title + '.mp4')
AttributeError: module 'ffmpeg' has no attribute 'input'

I can't figure out what happened. I think it may have something to do about the versions of ffmpeg or something??

especially when you are using venv the correct command is:

pip install ffmpeg-python

In my case worked on Ubuntu

Adding to the answer of @user14741746, take care of installing ffmpeg-python, be aware that there is another package called python-ffmpeg, as per the comment here.
Correct:

pip install ffmpeg-python

Incorrect:

pip install ffmpeg
pip install python-ffmpeg

That is, unless you are trying to install one of these two packages on purpose.

If you're on macOs, you can also try to install ffmpeg through brew. It helped me to resolove such issue.

brew install ffmpeg
